Sir Nicolas Dorigny
Sir Nicolas Dorigny is represented here by three engravings made in 1695, a small group that places him within the late seventeenth-century print culture of engraved reproductions and mythological subjects. The sheets take up themes of the heavens and the classical gods, as the titles The Firmament, Saturn and Jupiter indicate. All three works in this collection are engravings from that single year, so the holdings offer a tight, consistent view of his burin work rather than a broad survey of his career.
